About this ebook

A scorched-earth war for Scotland's soul.

​​​​​​​​​In 1308, Scotland still suffers under the heel of England's conquest. Driven by unyielding honor, James Douglas wages a fierce guerrilla war to expel the invaders. From lightning ambushes to burning the very earth he defends to deny it to the enemy, Douglas will do whatever it takes to reclaim his homeland's freedom.

He is a master of cunning, executing daring attacks on occupied strongholds, swearing that no English forces will ever securely hold Scottish soil. Yet, the price of victory is heavy. Amidst the brutal war, his implacable duty to his country threatens even the woman he loves, testing the ultimate limits of passion and loyalty.

The conflict reaches a bloody crescendo when King Edward brings a massive English army to crush Scottish resistance. Facing the full countenance of war, the Scots and English cross swords in a reckoning that will determine Scotland's very survival.

Fans of Braveheart, Bernard Cornwell, and Conn Iggulden will devour this epic tale of loyalty, courage, and the fight for freedom. Buy Countenance of War today to continue the epic battle for Scotland!

Excellent story! I don't know if it has to do with transferring to an E-book or poor editing but there are some grammatical errors that are a bit frustrating to see. Either way I would definitely recommend this book.
